I want to work around the idea that abstract painting has its own way of being physical. The minimalist statement What you see is all there is gives the possibility to explore relations and tensions between forms, colours, time and space without referring to images. Sometimes I just let it go and I am happy with new colors, materiality and temporality. What I really want is to conceal the surface, to break down the status quo, to find a sensitive way to explore abstraction and to discover new ways of painting.
